Do you think correct posture at the computer eliminates discomfort and reduces injuries?


"Picture-perfect" posture can be extremely fatiguing, especially when held for long periods of time. When sitting, the full force of gravity is carried by the upper body and can lead to fatigue, muscle strain, or joint pain.


Prolonged, static postures reduce blood flow and deprive muscles of necessary oxygen and nutrients. Dynamic postures increase blood flow and allow for muscles to have small rest breaks when you work. Change your position frequently, and alternate sitting and standing.  For instance, find an elevated worksurface where you can stand and do your paperwork from time to time.
